Abstract
Semen obtained from Rhode Island Red males was stored for 24 hr. at 2 to 5[degree]C in two diluents containing skimmed milk. The fertilizing ability of the spermatozoa was tested afterwards in White Leghorn and Rhode Island Red hens and the results showed that fowl spermatozoa could be stored for 24 hr. without considerable loss of their fertilizing capacity.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
